THE CABLE is READY.
The Long Rope Taken Back to
Broadway Yesterday - Cars
Could Be Run To-Day.

Inc Long rope Iaken BACK 10
Broadway Yesterday 80 Cars
Could Be Run To-Day.
After six months yicisSitudes in every
imaginable shape, the cable line seems
to be permanent fixture at last, and
residents of st. Anthony hill will no
doubt enjoy the luxury in the prom
ised coaches by Christmas day. There
was a great rejoicing over the entire
line yestt rday when the intelligence
was flashed back from the Broadway
terminal, in front of the Northern Pa
cific Railroad cOmpany'S office, that the
two ends of the thread were in posi-
ton. and that there was not
a kink in the long chain. All
that remains to be done now
is to splice the ends so that they will
remain in position permanently and
this will probably be accomplished ere
night falls. With the cable in position
very little remains to be done except
clearing up the tracks, and cars could
be run to-day if the company
desired it. But the manager, deeming
it best to defer this operation until there
is no danger of interruption, will have
every point carefully inspected and
both terminals securely and perma
nently completed before putting on the
cars

NEW YORK, Dec. 21.-The condition
OFF. III. Kelly has greatly improved and
he was to-day able to eat pretty well and
felt as though he was strong enough to
leave his bed, but his doctor would not
hear of it. The weather here is exceed
ingly damp and foggy. and the physi-
clan says the slightest exposure to cold
until Mr.. Kelly is more completely con-
yalescent might have dangerous re-
suit. He says he only wants rest and
care, for the dangerous symptoms have
all disappeared. The arrival of his wife
and brother has been great pleasure
to him, and he is improving rapidly
since. MIR. Kelly was staying at the
Windsor hotel when he fell i'll, but his
friend, Mr.. Hard, of Nyack, who is stay
ing at the Normandie with his wife, in
duced him to go there, and did all he
could until his family arrived.

THEY WANT A RAISE.

Organized Effort by the Mail
Carriers to Secure Higher Sal
aries.
The letter carriers of st. Paul are
now busily engaged in agitating the
subject of an increase in salary by adj
ding another class into which men hay
ing served two years are to be placed at
salary of $1,000. All letter carriers
in first-class offices are now
divided into three classes receiving the
following salaries: Six hundred dol
lars for the first year; $500 for the sec
ond, and 1000 for the third, and all
succeeding years the carrier may re-
main in the service. The proposed
change is to add another class at 81, 200
to be paid men who have served three
wears or over ON salary. This is the
substance of a resolution adopted by
the Letter Carriers association recently
and sent by them to all similar aSSOcia-
lions in the country. In the letter
communicating this action to the
other associations a request is
made that an endeayor be made by each
association to influence their local Sena-
tors and representatives to pass such a
bill as they outline. A bill has, how
ever been introduced providing that
81 200 shall be paid at the end of four
years instead of three, as the Letter
Carriers association, of this city, out
lines and recommends.
There are now fifty-three letter car
riers employed IN delivering mail in st.
Paul. Of these thirty-three are in the
first class at $1,000, eight in the second
class at $500 and twelve in the third
class at $500. Then besides these there
are seven subs" who are obliged to re-
port at the pOstOffice twice day, for
which the government pays the munifi-
cent salary of 81 per year. The amounts
received by them for ''subbing" they dc
increases this to an average of SIS pei
month. The letter carriers are evidently
in, earnest in regard to the matter
Considering the fact that they are
obliged to be out in all kinds of weather
with long hours of steady tramping, and
that all are obliged to be men of intelli.
gence and, withal, trustworthy and
steady, they think it evident that they
are badly underpaid.-

THE THREE-CENT RATE.
Conference Between the North ern
Pacific's Attorney and the Com
misSiOneFS.

Pacific's Attorney and the Com
missiOnerS.
Attorney Mcknight. of the Northern
Pacific, lad conference with MessrS.
Becker and Austin, or the Railway
commission. yesterday morning in re-
gard to the new schedule of passenger
rates, which the commissioners ordered
that company to adopt some time
ago. The discussion was altogether
informal and confined to a general con-
versation regarding the case. Attorney
Mcknight claimed that the state had
no legal right to reduce the rate below
four cents per mile. He held that the
charter was granted, not for certain
period, but for all time, and that the
right to charge four cents per mile was
conferred in the charter. Gen. Becker
said he didn't see if they could make a
reduced mileage ticket, similar to other
roads, why they couldn't give the COM
mon people the three-cent rate on pas
senger traffic. He further told the at
tOrney that. in his opinion, the road
could make no more popular and paying
movement than this, and that he might
so tell Mr.. Cakes.

The Signal ONCE Weather Crop Bulletln.
WASHINGTON, July 2A-The Signal
Service weather crop bulletin for the
week ending July %, reports that the
temperature for the week has been nor
NAL or slightly cooler than usual in the
New England States, Upper Lake region,
and the Missouri valley; elsewhere il has
been warmer, the notable excuses rang
ing from deg. daily in the Middle At.
lantic States to deg. or more in the
Ohio valley These high temperatures
have prevailed over the entire cotton,
corn and tobacco regions.
Since January the temperature for the
agricultural sections has closely accorded
with the average, except over the corn
and wheat districts Of the Ohio Valley
and Missouri, where the mean daily ex-
cess OF heat has been from one 10 two de-
grees. During the week the rainfall has
been in excess over New England, the
Middle Atlantic States and the interior
of the South Atlantic and East Gulf
States, as well as in the greater part Of
Nebraska. The excess Of rainfall has
come largely in severe thunder storms,
especially in Pennsylvania and Mary
land.
| While Southern Michigan has been IA
vored by slight excess, the Ohio and
Mississippi valleys report for the week
deficient rainfall, varying from one-third
to three-Quarters Of the usual amount
| Marked seasonal deficiencies of rainfall
yet obtain, amounting to ten inches or
more, in Iowa, the Lower Mississippi
/ valley, Alabama and Georgia. In Iowa
this deficiency has steadily increased
during the past month; but IN the other
regions named the deficiency has slowly
diminished.
The reports for the week show weather
favorable for the cotton crop, except in
the Carolinas, where many localities
much need the rain to-day predicted.
While the high temperatures tend to
rapidly mature the growing corn, yet
more rain must be needful from Kansas
and Iowa, eastward TO Indiana.
The great heat and bad distribution OF
rain may possibly affect the crop in NORTH
Carolina, where, however, the indications
Of this morning look to occasional rains.
